Why did the descendants of Prophet Muhammad migrate from Madina? How many migrations did the Sadat experience? What were the routes taken during these migrations?

Can you provide examples from the life of the Prophet (pbuh) that demonstrate how he never imposed himself on people?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The examples of noble attitude of the Prophet (SAWA) are more than counting. Imam Ali (AS) was asked similar question to count the noble ethics of the Prophet (SAWA). He replied the person by a question: Can you count the bounties in this work? The person replied: No, I can never count them. Imam Ali (AS) replied him: All bounties of this world are little as Allah Said in Quran (Qum Mataa' Al-Dunia Wakeel), so how you want me to count the noble ethics of the Prophet which are great (Wa INNAKA La Ala Khuluqin A'dheem)?

All the life of the Prophet (SAWA) in Makkah, Madina, at home, with people, in peace and in war and every situation is full of examples of his humbleness and noble ethics and he never imposed himself on people.

Can you explain which is greater: the Message or the Messenger (peace be upon him)? Are they equally important or interconnected?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The greatness of the message comes from the greatness of who sent it, so the message from Allah is very great. The greatness of the messenger also comes from who sent the messenger, so the messenger of Allah is very great. When Allah (SWT) Says (O, Messenger, convey what has been sent to you from your Lord, and if you don’t, you will be then like you did not convey His message) (5:67), thus means that thus is the greatest message from Allah to be conveyed by His messenger, which is equal to the whole message of Islam and not conveying it is equal to not conveying the whole message of Islam.
